This project was launched on 30 March 2011 and was described by Bill Osborne, Chairperson of Building Change Trust as:
"In these austere times, we understand the sector is under pressure to meet increased demand to support our community with reducing resources. Building Change Trust is delighted to be able to support the voluntary and community sector to consider new collaborative approaches to meet these demands. We believe the outcome of this project will be a stronger sector, more effectively positioned to meet the demands of the future".

Getting here and Parking
NICVA has a number of free parking spaces available for those attending events. Unfortunately these can't be reserved and are available on a first come basis. NICVA's spaces are clearly marked and we would ask that visitors only use spaces allocated to NICVA when attending an event.
Parking is also available on Duncairn Gardens and surrounding areas within close walking distance. NICVA is also a short walk from Yorkgate Train Station and you can easily catch a bus from the city centre (no 1D) direct to Duncairn Gardens, or (no 61 and 64) to Cityside Centre (a few minutes walk).
